PAIN CONCEALED
FOREVER
Screaming yells
inside my soul, hatred knows what I know,
Listen to me, blind
eyes scream,
Blackened knowledge
blackened heart, make it stop where it starts!
Yell and scream,
yes I cry,
Into the nevermore
I wish to fall,
Catch me lord if
you're there, death I wish for, I don't care!
Burn me hate me,
frightened demon,
Friendly death?
Is it forbidden?
Lightly devil, steal
my mind, for those eyes of mine are blind!
Jump and cry, inner
pain,
Singing voice, voice
so calm,
Hurt my ears, pain
inside, knowledge that pain abides!
Death approaches,
and I know,
Stringy fingers,
touch me still,
Spider legs, wrap
around me, deep red eyes forever steal me!
Knowledge that,
death is close,
Pain which I, will
not fear,
Listen closely,
my last breath, it reeks of rancor and of death!
